- Waterproof - Tear-Proof Topographic Map
.
Flowing freely for 153 miles in northern Arkansas, the wild and fully protected Buffalo River was the first national river to be designated in the United States. Expertly researched and created in partnership with the National Park Service and other agencies, National Geographic's Trail Illustrated map of the Buffalo National River East provides rich details on the middle and lower reaches of the river and the surrounding areas. Represented by mile markers, the river coverage begins at mile 66, just before Mount Hersey, and follows the river to its confluence with the White River at mile 153. River access points, campgrounds, visitor centers, parking areas, and other recreational facilities and points of interest are pinned throughout.
Precisely mapped trails are labeled according to their designated use and indicated with mile markers, including the Buffalo River and Ozark Highlands Trails, both of which are highlighted. Trail descriptions are also provided for most popular hiking trails. To aid your navigation, the map shows contour lines, elevations, marked peaks, and selected waypoints. Guidelines, regulations, and safety tips for canoeing, hiking, and horseback riding are also provided, along with a river mileage chart and essential contact information. Map coverage includes the Lower Buffalo and Leatherwood Wilderness Areas, the Gene Rush Wildlife Management Area, and parts of the Ozark National Forest.
